Chapter 2: Server Installation

2-5

Installing the Chassis Rails

Position the fixed chassis rail sections you just removed along the side of

the chassis making sure the fi ve screw holes line up.

Note that these two rails

are left/right specifi c. Screw the rail securely to the side of the chassis (see Figure

2-2). Repeat this procedure for the other rail on the other side of the chassis. You

will also need to attach the rail brackets when installing into a telco rack.

Locking Tabs: As you have seen, both chassis rails have a locking tab, which

serves two functions. The fi rst is to lock the server into place when installed and

pushed fully into the rack, which is its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also

lock the server in place when fully extended from the rack. This prevents the server

from coming completely out of the rack when you pull it out for servicing.

Installing the Rack Rails

Determine where you want to place the 1011M-T2 in the rack (see Rack and Server

Precautions in Section 2-3). Position the fi xed rack rail/sliding rail guide assemblies

at the desired location in the rack, keeping the sliding rail guide facing the inside

of the rack. Screw the assembly securely to the rack using the brackets provided.

Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making sure that both are

at the exact same height and with the rail guides facing inward.
